SUNRISE, Fla. (AP) — Cole Reinhardt scored his second goal of the game with 1:50 remaining and spoiled New York goaltender Jonathan Quick's final NHL game as the Florida Panthers beat the Rangers 3-2 on Monday night.

Quick, a three-time Stanley Cup champion, announced his retirement before Monday’s game after 19 seasons. He won the Cup twice in 16 seasons with the Los Angeles Kings, and was part of the Vegas Golden Knights’ 2023 championship team.

Reinhardt broke a 2-all tie on Florida’s fourth shot of the third period, beating Quick on the glove side.

The Rangers, who have lost three straight, never led.

Florida goalie Daniil Tarasov made 24 saves — including all 14 he faced in the third with the Rangers putting on a strong push to try and get Quick one final victory.

Matthew Robertson and Gabe Perreault scored for New York, which has lost three straight.

Florida scored twice in the opening period on goals by Reinhardt and Mackie Samoskevich for an early 2-0 lead.

Reinhardt, who has four goals in his three-game goal streak, opened the scoring by following up a rebound off a shot from defenseman Tobias Bjornfot.

Samoskevich made it 2-0 at 11:21 off the breakaway.

The Rangers cut into the Florida lead at 15:19 of the opening period when Robertson scored off a shot from the point.

Perreault was struck by a rebound off a shot from defenseman Adam Fox with 2:40 remaining in the second period, tying the score at 2.

Quick had 14 saves in the loss.

Rangers: At Tampa Bay on Wednesday.

Panthers: Host the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday.

Wall Street rises toward the edge of its all-time high as oil prices ease

NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. stock market is nearing its all-time high Tuesday, and oil prices are easing as hopes climb that the United States and Iran may try again on talks to end their war and avoid a worst-case scenario for the global economy.

The S&P 500 rose 1% after rallying the day before back to where it was before the United States and Israel launched attacks on Iran in late February. It's just 0.4% below its record and on track for its ninth gain in the last 10 days.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 313 points, or 0.6%, as of noon Eastern time, and the Nasdaq composite was 1.6% higher.

They followed gains for stock markets worldwide as Pakistan said it was trying to bring the United States and Iran together for more talks. Such prospects also helped lower the price of oil, whose production and transportation has been snarled by the fighting.

The price for a barrel of Brent crude oil, the international standard, fell 3.8% to $95.56. That’s still above its roughly $70 level from before the war, but it’s well below its peak of $119 reached a couple times when worries about the war hit their heights.

To be sure, hope has often quickly swung into doubt in financial markets since the war began, which has caused extreme and sudden reversals. Much of the stress has been due to the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow waterway that’s the main avenue for crude oil produced in the Persian Gulf area to reach customers worldwide. Blockages there have kept oil off the global market, which has in turn driven up its price.

And that has meant a blast of higher inflation. In the United States, inflation at the wholesale level accelerated to 4% in March from 3.4% the month before, according to the latest data released Tuesday. That was actually better than the 4.6% rate economists expected, but it could filter down to U.S. households if businesses fully pass on the increases.

The effect is worldwide. Global inflation this year looks set to accelerate to 4.4% from 4.1% in 2025, according to the International Monetary Fund, which had earlier thought inflation would slow to 3.8%.

The IMF on Tuesday also downgraded its forecast for global economic growth to 3.1% this year from the 3.3% it had forecast in January.

On Wall Street, strong profit reports from several companies and expectations for more helped make up for such worries. At their heart, stock prices tend to follow the path of corporate profits over the long term.

BlackRock gained 4.5%, and Citigroup rose 2.9% after the financial companies reported stronger profit and revenue for the latest quarter than analysts expected.

JPMorgan Chase also delivered a better-than-expected quarter, but its stock dipped 0.7% as CEO Jamie Dimon said bank officials cannot predict how the “increasingly complex set of risks” will play out given so much uncertainty.

Amazon climbed 3.3% after saying it would buy Globalstar, a mobile satellite services company, for $90 per share in either cash or Amazon stock. Globalstar jumped 10.7%.

Software companies also rallied for a second day, recovering more of their sharp losses from earlier in the year taken on worries that they could be made obsolete by artificial-intelligence technology. AppLovin rose 3.1%, and an ETF from iShares tracking the software industry added 1.4%.

That in turn helped private-credit companies rebound. These companies have lent money to software businesses and others that may be under threat from AI, and they've seen investors rush to try to pull their money recently.

Blue Owl Capital rose 8% to trim its loss for the year so far below 39%. Ares Management climbed 5.8%, and Apollo Global Management rose 3.7%.

They helped offset a 4.8% drop for Wells Fargo, which reported weaker revenue for the latest quarter than analysts expected.

In stock markets abroad, indexes rose across much of Europe and Asia. South Korea’s Kospi jumped 2.7%, and Japan’s Nikkei 225 rose 2.4% for two of the bigger gains.

In the bond market, Treasury yields ticked lower as the fall for oil prices took pressure off inflation. The yield on the 10-year Treasury fell to 4.27% from 4.30% late Monday.
